Prune and fertilize!

I’ve got 45 fruit trees….. it’s an investment worth maintaining! Pruning and fertilizing is the life of a fruit tree! Here’s how I do it!

Good pruning shears!

Enjoy your Channel Micah but as an arborist, trimming fruit trees in the dead of winter is the most ideal time when they will begin to begin the healing process. Trimming in the spring time when sap is wanting to kick buds into leaves, that energy is prime for the buds. Trimming in spring and they bleed from every wound, where you removed one leader, they’ll sucker up and you’ll next year have multiple leaders (water sprouts) you’ll know what I mean after this years growth and see how many suckers you’ll have in your spring trimmed trees. Keep up the good work

That Frank is a natural with the camera he ain’t foolin anyone lol. I’ve got some trees that need pruning but I’ve always been afraid I’d kill it.

[BootsAndBonnetWithChrisChristy]

I used to camp out on the lady's property had three pear trees in her backyard she couldn't recall them ever being trimmed so I trimmed them for her one year oh my God at the pears we had pears coming out our ears 😁🐝

Are you sure you are not an instructor??? You do so well in teaching and explaining things !!

[thecamocowboyoutdoors]

I have a few cherry trees up here. Im going to prune them a little more this spring as i haven't ever cut them back enough. It snowed here yesterday as well. Wish it would melt and dry up. Calves are coming! Thanks for sharing Brother. Take care

[CottonEnnis]

good job my fellow country-boy! Pruned our grape vines a couple weeks ago, slightly different obviously but the runners and the buds are the same. Good to hear from you Micah have a great day my Friend!!

[sleeplessinthecarolinas]

The last hard freeze took most of my peaches that budded early. I wish you the best on your homestead this year.

[XmanCo]

Very interesting indeed. Did the snow come eventually? Looks like it did hey... enjoy and stay safe man.

[stevecray]

It looked like spring had sprung here in England this week just gone BUT its taken a cold turn here too. At least it wasn't snow though. Its snowed here in May before, fingers crossed that won't happen this year! Great video brother. 😁👍🏻

[alinaalinaalina]

[brucetepke]
